What's a border panel? A-pillar? If so, you just have to drill a small hole in the panel, run the wires down that panel and under the dash. The rest is up to you from there as there's a million different ways to go.

you know, i have seen that pod (except with room for 3 gauges instead of 2) on www.defi-gauges.com.

it seems that they were designed for subarus, but i dont see why they wont work with rx7s. plus, defi also produces gauges that match extremely well with the stock dash gauges (black background, red needle, with orange lights at night).

they are very readable. I think they're a couple of guys on this list who have them who wanted to stuff 60mm gauges in them for that reason but once they saw it with the 52mm on the dash they changed their mind.
